Microfluidics and FPGA Verification

Tools to Make Life Better
by Amelia Dalton

This week’s Fish Fry is about tools. Not just any kind of tools – tools that can make your life better, your health stronger, and your job a little easier. First up, we check out how a team of researchers from MIT hopes to stem the tide of malaria with a new prototype device that can recognize the electrical properties of infected cells. Next, we chat with Shakeel Jeeawoody from Blue Pearl Software about how their tools can simplify the debug of your next FPGA design. 

Also this week, we look at the newest advances in smart display technology and give away a Gertboard courtesy of Newark element14.

Dissecting The Truth of RF DAC Resolution; Is It 14-Bits or 16?

Sponsored by Maxim Integrated

This application note uses common data conversion theorems to analyze the impacts of resolution and sample rate in a band-limited signal generation application. The conclusion is that the SNR performance improvement, due to the 16-bit LVDS interface bus, provides improved signal-to-noise (SNR) over a 14-bit Interface bus.

Automotive MOSFET for the Transportation Market

Sponsored by Mouser Electronics and Infineon

MOSFETS are critical in automotive applications, where long-term reliability is paramount. But, do we really understand the failure rates and mechanisms in the devices we design in? In this episode of Chalk Talk, Amelia Dalton sits down with Jeff Darrow of Infineon to discuss the role of MOSFETS in transportation, solder inspection, qualification.
